A major disruption occurred on the Jahangirpuri-Gurgon section Nov 19 evening, leaving thousands stranded. Full services only resumed the next morning.
“This line is always overcrowded. Since this line has a long route, thousands travel on it everyday. It is a case of too much load on this line,” the official said.
